2020 IBJJF Curitiba Summer Open

Did you know?

• ▸ Across 44 recorded matchups at the 2020 IBJJF Curitiba Summer Open, 20 ended by submission, for a submission rate of 45 percent. That means most of the finishes here came from taps rather than points or advantages.
• ▸ The most common submission on record at this event was the gi choke from back, showing up 5 times. If you train in the gi, that is a reminder that back control keeps paying out at the highest level.
• ▸ Erberth Santos led the event with 5 wins on record, 4 of them by submission. He closed out both the Super Heavyweight final over Harryson Pereira with a kneebar and the Absolute final over Rider Zuchi with a choke.
• ▸ Jurandir Conceição went 4 for 4 by submission in his recorded matches, finishing every win. His Ultra Heavyweight final over Yatan Bueno came by omoplata, which is an uncommon way to end a heavyweight bracket.
• ▸ Rider Zuchi reached the Absolute Division final and lost to Erberth Santos by choke, after beating Wellington Eller on points in the semi-finals. He still finished with 3 recorded wins on the weekend.
